The writer's only responsibility is to his art. He will be completely ruthless if he is a good one... If a writer has to rob his mother, he will not hesitate; the "Ode on a Grecian Urn" is worth any number of old ladies.
作家的唯一责任是对他的艺术负责。如果他是个好作家，他会完全无情...如果一个作家必须抢劫他的母亲，他不会犹豫；
只管走过去，不必逗留着采了花朵来保存，因为一路上花朵自会继续开放的。
You are worth more than you think.
